I think it will be hard at 16 months but the longer it goes the harder it will be. It sounds like he just needs a little something for comfort. Maybe you could try to replace it with something else, maybe music? When my youngest was little, we had a winnie the poo that played music for about 10 minutes and it really helped him to get to sleep. Of course, he had a binky too and it was really hard for him to give that up and I kinda hated taking it away because I knew it was his security. Eventually, he just kinda outgrew it. It had a hole and he didn't like that and it was pretty easy but he was almost 3. |
